And your book publishing is a really interesting idea, I had no idea it was possible to do that! My husband has a book he wants me to proof-read before self-publishing it, currently I haven&#39;t the faintest idea of how best to go about it, so your coaching offer is very timely! I&#39;m definitely interested, but have yet to read the book, though I&#39;m under pressure to get on with it! :) Once I&#39;m a bit further forward and ready to start the process it would be a great help to have a quick chat, thank you very much for the offer! sarah@themoneydiary.co.uknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6982074187857516038.post-63174978743381803262017-04-18T10:05:11.095-07:002017-04-18T10:05:11.095-07:00Hi Weenie,

You&#39;re quite right that I am tracking my progress against all 30 goals, but some of them were things like &quot;get the dining room furniture purchased and fitted&quot;, which although a great goal for me, would probably be a little dull for people interested in personal finance to read about! So I decided to pick the 10 I thought would be more interesting to my readers to talk about on the blog - also because it would simply take me too long to write about all 30 and I think I may lose a few people to sleep along the way ha ha!<br /><br />I am really looking forward to attending FinCon - it feels like it was ages ago I got the hair brained idea that I should just &quot;hop on a plane&quot; and go! I&#39;m hoping to attend some talks by the writers of some of the US blogs that I read...plus it&#39;s been a while since I went to the USA so that will be a lot of fun. I will be sure to write up about it on my return (or maybe even while I&#39;m out there!)<br /><br />OROrganised Redheadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05210528791993069492noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6982074187857516038.post-75867715060928072292017-04-18T10:00:25.419-07:002017-04-18T10:00:25.419-07:00Hi Sarah,

I just didn&#39;t want to restrict myself after I sat down and wrote down everything I wanted to achieve - some of the goals are much easier than others.<br /><br />Tickets for the SHOMO awards are available now and if you&#39;re in the UK Money Bloggers group you can get one for free, this will be my first year attending so I&#39;m really looking forward to it - it&#39;s on Sat Sep 23rd.<br /><br />I&#39;m glad that I&#39;ve given you some inspiration to check in on how you&#39;re doing with your goals. I love the whole process of setting goals and tracking them over time, so its great if I can encourage that in others. Feel free to share any of your goals and how you&#39;re getting on with them...<br /><br />With regards to my book publishing goal, I have published 2 non-fiction books so far, which are published as kindle books on Amazon and available as paperbacks. I don&#39;t write the books myself, but I do research what topic I want the book to be about, come up with a title and rough breakdown of what I want to go in the book, then I hire a ghost writer to actually write the book. Once they&#39;re finished I own the rights to the book, get a cover created and publish it, followed by ongoing marketing (which is very quick and simple to do). My plan is to get more and more books published over time until eventually I&#39;m earning a relatively passive income from the book sales which will cover my monthly expenses, at which point I can &quot;retire&quot; from having to work 9-5 and pursue more online business ventures that interest me!<br /><br />If you&#39;re interested in finding out more about book publishing, I&#39;d be happy to jump on a call with you to offer you some initial insights and coaching in how to get started - you&#39;d actually be helping me achieve goal number 4 at the same time! You could give me feedback and tips on anything I can do to improve my coaching technique... Do let me know if you&#39;re interested.<br /><br />OROrganised Redheadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05210528791993069492noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6982074187857516038.post-39353355892731778362017-04-18T03:26:06.272-07:002017-04-18T03:26:06.272-07:00Some great goals to go for, OR - good luck!

I guess you&#39;ll still be going for some of those other goals but not track them on the blog, otherwise it&#39;d be a bit too much?<br /><br />Looking forward to your update from FinCon - the FI movement in the UK is fledgling compared to the US, so it&#39;d be great to hear of your views following your attendance. <br />weeniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01602950445306813601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6982074187857516038.post-21406234246206034272017-04-17T14:55:43.924-07:002017-04-17T14:55:43.924-07:00Very interested in your book publishing goal, woul...Very interested in your book publishing goal, would love to hear more about that if you are able to share any info or tips on how best to approach it? I might consider SHOMO too...! You sound very focused which can only be a good thing, I&#39;ll be sure to check back and see how you&#39;re going, good luck! I set less monthly goals this year as I found it too stressful doing that last year, but still have a number of broader goals this year. You&#39;ve motivated me to take a look and see how things are going now the first quarter of the year has passed, thanks! Sarah@themoneydiary.co.ukhttp://www.themoneydiary.co.uknoreply@blogger.com
